Default Standard AA EP. Best Line?

Hero is UTG+1. MP1 +MP2 are loose, but no reads other than that.

Paradise $.5 BB, villains have a full buy in and I cover.

raise 2.5, MP1 raises 5.5, MP2 calls, folded back to me.
Hero?

I thought about making 15 to go, but felt that it would scream AA, either villain could call with a lower PP and dump a missed flop, plus I don't know where I'm at being OOP the whole time if villain raises. Cold calling seemed absurd. I figured given the action one of them really likes there cards and pushed, deciding I'd be satisfied with the $14 i'd get from a fold, and I'd charge worse hands the maximum to try and outflop me.

Whats the best play here?

i like a push. any 3-bet gives away your hand, so the push gets max value from someone that can't lay down their JJ-KK. it basically says, "i have AA...do you believe me?"

you have to raise with the cold-caller still in the hand...if it were heads-up, calling and playing some poker post-flop would be good.

Push is okay. With a reraise and a caller, I'm happy with this pot and I think push ultimately is more +EV than another raise. NH.
